Psalm 78:42–55

⁴²They remembered not his hand,

Nor the day when he redeemed them from the adversary;

⁴³How he set his signs in Egypt,

And his wonders in the field of Zoan,

⁴⁴And turned their rivers into blood,

And their streams, so that they could not drink.

⁴⁵He sent among them swarms of flies, which devoured them;

And frogs, which destroyed them.

⁴⁶He gave also their increase unto the caterpillar,

And their labor unto the locust.

⁴⁷He destroyed their vines with hail,

And their sycomore-trees with frost.

⁴⁸He gave over their cattle also to the hail,

And their flocks to hot thunderbolts.

⁴⁹He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger,

Wrath, and indignation, and trouble,

A band of angels of evil.

⁵⁰He made a path for his anger;

He spared not their soul from death,

But gave their life over to the pestilence,

⁵¹And smote all the first-born in Egypt,

The chief of their strength in the tents of Ham.

⁵²But he led forth his own people like sheep,

And guided them in the wilderness like a flock.

⁵³And he led them safely, so that they feared not;

But the sea overwhelmed their enemies.

⁵⁴And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary,

To this mountain, which his right hand had gotten.

⁵⁵He drove out the nations also before them,

And allotted them for an inheritance by line,

And made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
